How can you tell who to trust when it comes to mediums and psychics? There are so many people that crave a connection or message from loved ones, or seek guidance or reassurance for life choices. The search is frustrating. I thank Any of you who have these amazing gifts and talents. Are there ways for us to know who to trust?

Hi.
Good question but not an easy one to answer..There are many people who call themselves psychic or mediums but who infact have had very little or no training whatso ever. To try and answer you i would suggest check each person out,ask questions,give nothing away but always remember if your not happy back away. If you live in the UK go to your nearest spiritualist church first of all. You may find this web site helpful S.N.U.ORG.UK.
Kind regards.

In my experience the ones you trust know zero about you or your family. Even if it was face to face, I always think with access to social media things can be found out instantly however I had a very good reading off a few people that have known nothing about me as I never give to much away . By me not telling anyone they are truly psychic if they know.

I've had a couple readings done on the same topic. My father.
One was spot on. She even mentioned something very dear to him that was on his bedside table. Only I would know about it.

The others, well...very generalized answers..
Could be referring to anybody, not just one in particular.
First up, I ask some things that nobody could possible know but myself or those closest to me. If they fail.. move on.

I agree with keith

A good online psychic will generally never ask you for too much information...
doing so ''feeds'' the psychic and makes it easy for them to make assumptions

There are times where a genuine psychic may not be 100% on point, it happens.. It doesn't mean it's a cold reading but again a genuine reader will not try to force the reading, but will likely apologize and let you know that it's not working out as hoped

I agree with the poster who mentioned the reader giving something only you would know. Whether it's immediate or 5 minutes into the reading, you will know at that point that you have a genuine connection. That being said, a genuine reader will always let you know if the connection isn't very strong..

Never be afraid to ask questions, feedback can give a good and accurate reflection of how the reader works, how accurate they have been for others. Bios can help you to understand more about the reader.. ask away, ask how long they have been reading for, how do they work.. take a look at feedback and see how they respond to you.

A genuine reader will never be offended by you doing any of the above & will never ask you too much.

Forgot to add: Practice caution with websites which are fairly new .. if something seems off, it probably is

Check how long they have been going... example is, ABT has been up since 2006 with many members who have been here 9 going on ten years or more
That speaks volumes to me personally (from a newbie perspective)

You can review each Reader's Bio, plus meet them in Chat.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fraud psychics don't like to be tested, so they will never be interested in you asking a few questions that only you have the answers to. If they will not let you ask a few questions first or refuse to do a general reading, then it is more than likely they're con artists.

A fake psychic will make all kinds of promises that they can bring back your lover with spells and candles which, of course, will all add up to extra and expensive charges. Ịf a psychic says you have a curse on you, your family or friend, this is a definite warning sign that you have found a fake psychic. Because curses, hexes etc, do not exist, and fear can be a powerful tool when it involves your nearest and dearest.

If I may offer here, If you get positive vibes off someone who allows you to ask questions, like Owlscrying said, then keep going with that person, however, like was mentioned before, if they do not allow you to ask questions, or you dont feel a positive vibe from them, then dont continue. Though, If they do allow you to ask questions, but your not getting a very positive vibe, then i would seek counseling from an elder about that person and see if they are new to it (even if they claim they are not new) and try to seek help from the elder if possible. I know this can sometimes be hard to do, but a lot of the readers here are very knowledgeable in what they are doing. Some may be newer than others, but they have proven that they know the basics and can do it. and have also shown improvement as well. I hope my insight has helped some.

I briefly dated a woman who I met online many years ago who was gifted. This was years before social media or me having any picture of myself online. She never met me and was able to describe me with eerie accuracy. She confirmed what she pictured when we met in person.

A few years ago myself, my wife, and our two daughters had an experience with a local medium that blew us away. We never met the woman, but she was able to see all of the passed loved ones around us. We have her no details and she was able to tell us things none of us have told anyone. She had my wife in tears with messages about her father who passed many years ago. This woman is certified genuine and can be contacted on Facebook. I gladly vouch for her and can provide details for anyone interested in connecting with her.

Genuine mediums and clairvoyants do most of the talking and use very few if any probing questions. Frequent probing questions are a sign they might not be legit. There is a difference between probing questions and confirmational questions. The latter are used to ensure the connection is accurate.
